Fantasy Beauty Collection: Vol. 1

The more I scroll through Instagram and browse makeup websites, the more I appreciate the beauty of beauty products. There’s just something about shiny new products that makes me want to put them on a shelf to admire and never destroy their pristine state. I’ve developed this fantasy of having an area—or, fuck it, since this is a fantasy, a whole room—where I can display beauty products that I find aesthetically pleasing. Brands put a ton of thought into product design, so it only makes sense that some beauty products are literal works of art. People buy art to enjoy in their homes—why not beauty products? I mean…just look at these Pat McGrath Mothership eyeshadow palettes:

Of course, the reason this is a fantasy is that beauty products can be expensive and having a whole collection for display only could rack up quite a tab. Because I love making lists, I thought I’d start a wishlist of products that I would want to display in my own home. Some of these are products I’d actually use and some are ones I know I wouldn’t, but they’re all a whole lot of fun to ogle.

4. I’m a sucker for Too Faced packaging, because how adorable is the Sweetie Pie Radiant Matte Bronzer from the Peaches and Cream Collection?! I’m sure this post is coming off as a Too Faced ad…but it’s not. (I’m only using Sephora affiliate links here.) 🙂
